You might consider using libvirt, which (among many other relevant 
features) can dynamically assign VNC ports (thus managing the uniqueness 
constraint) and will expose the currently selected port as part of the 
domain's XML configuration. (Getting a VNC viewer going with libvirt is 
considerably easier than that, though -- "virt-viewer VM_NAME" will do 
the trick).
